beatngu Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 My favorites were the long nose GMC and the bullnose Pete, very nifty trucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehummell Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Those two trucks of Tim Hoover's are something to look at I talked to him about the repairs done on them and It wasn't like doing a b model. If you get the chance it's worth hearing about the work involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ws721 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 That's cool. Thanks for the link to the show pics. That 80's Freightliner sure had a lot of time spent on it. Looks just like the truck in one of my Freightliner ads from back in the day. Lot of nice trucks there Quote Remember if it's got a hood it's no good!

Popular Post other dog Posted September 29, 2018 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 29, 2018 I saw a girl in a car one day. And on the way back from Winchester we stopped at the Rt. 11 Potato Chip factory. You can't get Rt. 11 Potato Chips in Florida, so Zina got some to ship to the folks at home. The nice lady there, who's also the owner of the business, told us about a covered bridge that was nearby so we went to take a look. And we saw a bald eagle while we were there. It's sitting in that tree on the right side of the soybean field. I didn't even know what it was until I zoomed the camera in on it. I saw a big Mack truck today too. I saw a big Mack truck last week too. 5 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobert62 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Thanks. I like that kinda old industrial type stuff. That's further then my travels have taken me. I used to get off the woodstock exit but I think that's 28? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 http://www.rt11.com/ I like the sweet potato chips best, they'll be available soon. You can only get them in sweet potato season, starting some time in October. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Tom, thank you for the deeper excursion. Interesting thoughts floated up in my mind. Here in Russia you can find many really old and ancient memorial objects such as churches, kremlins, monasteries and so on.Some of them are dated as 10 hundreds years old or so. But on the other hand much newer but either vintage artifacts of for example industrial kind are quite scarce.Being in Netherlands I once noted a really old riveted roof structure above a railroad platform. It was in a small city and a local station. But the roof looked vintage, well-cared and solid. In Russia you can seldom see anything really old in service. The most things get redone every 5-15-30 years and many are poor-made structures. Maybe excepting some really large railroad bridges made of steel. And what I dislike nobody estimate such objects as any historical value. Everything working must work and that's all. Sure there's a reason of shortage of old buildings and so due to the WW2 which took a really large part of the country. Actually you can easily recognize the area of German occupation and non-occuped just be the number of old churches. But The Netherlands were occupied either. And Dutches have those vintage railroad staitions/ Russians - don't. P.S. The said above has direct relation to old trucks either. 2 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
